Christian’s Medical School Qualifications
We all know that medical school admissions is a beast. It's not just the endless hours of MCAT study and actually sitting the day-long monster, but the primaries, secondaries, idiosyncracies like the Texas system, virtual mini-interviews, and the ever-shifting sands of pre-reqs. Through my experience as a producer / tech specialist at the Future Minority Doctor podcast and website, lead MCAT tutor for one of the country's most exclusive private tutoring companies, and knowledge of the inner workings of medical school admissions committees, I can give you the edge you need to take the next big step forward in becoming a doctor. Let's get to work!
